This has been a joy to read, even though the Buffy and Willow bashing at the beginning irked me. The humour was outstanding, the characterizations were dead on, and I could actually see what I was reading as if I were watching television. All in all, I'd love to see more of this universe, but I know that you've put it to bed. While sad that it's over, it left on a good note.
Character DeathSwap caught me off guard, but I've read that before in other stories. As vindictive as Meers' punishment was, I was all for it.
Nice twist with Dawn, BTW.

A great tale and a wonderful cross, the ever changing nature of the story kept me entertained and interested throughout and I can understand why you ended it when you did although I think I can see a few places you could have taken it but still a great story and one of my all time favs

Still one of my favorite stories, I just reread it again for the third time or something and realized I hadn't reviewed. I really do think this is one of the best crossovers I've read and easily the best in regards to a Xena/Hercules crossover (I seem to have a soft spot for crossovers involving the Greek pantheon). I completely understand the ending, but am sad that it did have to end without an actual wrap up of many of the plotlines. If you are unwilling to work on a sequel, is there any possible chance of a side story of some of the minor characters? There is a lot of potential here; Jenny as a guardian angel, Faith/Dawn as Amazons, etc.
Either way, I am extremely glad you wrote this one as you did, it just leaves me wishing for more. Great work you got here.

Review of chapter "Revelations In White Light" from Chikageko
Review:
...? Huh!? Not computing; major unexplained AU presant. How is Prue still alive while Leo is an elder and maried to Piper? Not that I mind, Prue is my favorite charactor despite her incredable lack of imagination, but where the hell did the temporal flux occur and how? Can I assume you're going to explain in later chapters at least?

I really enjoyed reading this darker version of Xander. I don't know if you are working on a sequel, or if I may have missed it somewhere, but if not, I hope you are thinking about writing one. Great work.

I spent the day rereading this story, and it's even better the second time. I caught a lot of character development and off-screen events on the second reading. This story has one of my very favorite portrayal of Xander: you've managed (somehow) to make a super!Xander who is still, essentially, Xander. Great job.
I just found this story, and I spent the last day reading it straight through from the beginning. I've been fascinated. I love the characterizations and the interactions. You give a real depth to Xander, and show his fierce love for his chosen. Thank you.
On the whole I think that this is a wonderful fic. I do have one question though, this is in the Charmed crossover section and yet this has very very little in it about the Charmed Ones in it, why? Again I love this fic.
Comments from author:
Because it started out as a Charmed fic and... well, you saw how it mutated.
Thanks.
